Hello, dear reader! Here at my blog you will find glimpses of joy, Stockholm, my numerous museum visits, funny and serious stuff worth noticing - all in journalese and sometimes in Swedish. With this also comes a pinch of analyses and reflections. This is a dynamic blog, meaning I sometimes go back in the archive and update the posts. If you are following my blog from a phone, click on "View web version" at the bottom of the page - it facilitates the reading. Enjoy! /Jana :)

"Dept. of Speculations" by Jenny Offill

Never liked poetry: never know in what mood I should be when I start to get the most out of it.

This is like highly enjoyable poetry, though. Whilst raisingchildworkinghardlivingwithapartner, and reflecting about statistics on...life, and research, and that "sleeping like a baby" definitely could mean screaming in somebody's ear for five hours, it is a shaking and mundane (and therefore even more shaking, nerves are chords) dense story I enjoyed the way some people enjoy well-made horror films.
